MD 2290 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL…WATCH UNLIKELY FOR CENTRAL GULF COAST
Mesoscale Discussion 2290 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0708 AM CST Fri Dec 27 2024 Areas affected...central Gulf Coast Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely Valid 271308Z - 271415Z Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent SUMMARY...A low-probability, brief tornado risk may persist through the rest of mid-morning across southeast Mississippi. DISCUSSION...A confluent band of mainly discrete convection has persisted over the past couple hours, generally perpendicular to a northwest/southeast-oriented warm front that is roughly approaching a PIB to MOB line. Transient supercell structures have been noted, and these may persist through about 15Z. The 12Z LIX RAOB sampled a bit of near-surface stability, but otherwise contained a conditionally favorable buoyancy/shear space for a supercell tornado. As noted in the 13Z SWODY1, the background synoptic environment is unlikely to support substantially greater organization. In conjunction, with further waning of large-scale ascent, overall tornado potential in this area should be brief and temporally diminish by late morning. ..Grams/Edwards.. 12/27/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
